NOPR Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Thats what happens when you tell Obama to take a hike are you implying that gm and chrysler are doing bad because of Obama while Ford is successful simply because they didn't take bailout money? because if you're looking at it that narrowly, you really have no idea what you're talking about.

I know several people who absolutely chose Ford this time around b/c they did not take bailout money. Right or wrong, it's real. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Removed Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Gm went up 12 or 13% some bigs gains there....but still going up 13% off the negative 30% is better then still being -30% Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Jones Posted March 3, 2010 Report Share Posted March 3, 2010 Hell, I'm not a huge of domestic companies in general, but hats off to ford. I, for one commend them for not taking a handout, staying strong, and getting back on their feet THE RIGHT WAY. That new 5.0 is pretty cool, and the Flex with the EcoBoost is nice, but unfortunately priced a bit high IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, that I can agree with. Certainly people are doing that. I think i was misinterpreting what he said. However, GM's and Chrysler's problems are not Obama's fault.

Scotty2Hotty Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Might be getting me a Ford aswell, 2010 F150 Raptor. Got to love the military sales program Either way, Ford is about the only American company making a variety of vehicles, and not to mention models that are half way exciting.

Avenger1647545502 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 Unfortunately, that 43% increase is from "same month 2009", and Ford 2009 sales were a case of "just not as bad as everybody else." They were down a mere 15-20% (can't remember the exact percentage) when everybody else dropped 30-50%. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug1647545489 Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 I've got my name down at the local dealership for a Kona Blue 2011 GT Premium. Can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
copperhead Posted March 4, 2010 Report Share Posted March 4, 2010 the Flex queer Might be getting me a Ford aswell, 2010 F150 Raptor. Somewhat less :marc2: than the flex, but I can't say a whole lot of good about a lifted 2wd with the same engine that would be in the normal F150. Had they jacked up the HP along with the suspension, I wouldn't bitch so much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

See it every day. Non Ford owners are pissed and looking for an American alternative. In certain situations, the tipping factor is the bailout money. Many Fords have been sold this way.

Sorry, the article I read when they were first being released said only 4.6 and they weren't 4x4. I never looked back into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have yet to see a 2WD/4.6 Raptor yet. Everyone that has come through PPC has been a 4WD/5.4. I'll be crunching some #'s on one here when I get the opportunity.

Not just based on that, but it is helping Ford you can't deny that. Chrysler is doing poorly cause they build a shitty product, have for many years. I don't know why the Government keeps bailing them out. They're surviving off the Hemi name. GM's problems are because of shitty products in the 80's and early 90's and the major issue was the union bringing them down. I've owned 4 GM products all from the 70's 80's and 90's all were junk. I've owned 11 Fords and all have treated me very well. It's why I have 5 Fords in my Stable right now. And thats the way it'll stay. Ford not taking Obama money and comming out stronger than any of them tells me something. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
